James,
Coming along nicely!! Are you getting anxious to finish it? I am enjoying your build. You do such nice work! It looks really good. The eng install looks really good and clean. Let us know how you like the eng isolators (less vibration). You can fine tune the flaps with the two servos. You still have the two piece wing? and your happy with the way it fits and mounts to the fuse? Is that battery in the wing a permanent location? What do you think your all up weight will be? What paint are you using on the fiberglass parts? Are you using the carbon fiber landing gear or piano wire? Keep the photos coming! Nice progress.
bogbeagle, have you been flying your Chippy? Do you have the 81" ws or the clipped wing? I think the new owners of Apache only sell the clipped wing version now? I wonder why? Thanks for the update James! Rick
